The debate over repealing this law is over. The Affordable Care Act is here to stay. ... In the end, history is not kind to those who would deny Americans their basic economic security. Nobody remembers well those who stand in the way of Americas progress or our people. And thats what the Affordable Care Act represents. As messy as its been sometimes, as contentious as its been sometimes, it is progress.

What Republican will stand up today and say something like this:

No, Mr. President. No way, Mr. President. We do not accept, we do not acquiesce in, this deplorable piece of legislation. The debate is not over. The debate will continue. It must continue. What is at stake is sound health care policy for America. But what is also at stake is reversing your attempt, Mr. President, to transform a free country committed to limited government into merely another nation burdened with the worst aspects of big-government nanny-statism.

Mr. President, you have been elected our 44th president. We of course accept that, and we understand that you will continue to fight for your legislation and threaten to veto attempts to repeal and replace it. But we do not accept that you get to decide that the debate is over. We do not accept that you acquire any moral authority by claiming to enlist "history" on your side. We do not accept that your attempt to expand welfare state at the expense of individual liberty and the rule of law is true "progress."

President Obama, you might wish the debate were over. You might think you can intimidate us into conceding the debate is over. But you are wrong. The Republican party

Obama: The Debate is Over; Submit to Obamacare. Your wages shall be cut 25%, your premiums will more than double before we force you on to Single Payer. You will pay for Sex change operations and abortions for any who wish it.

The GOP is **** scared to do anything for fear of being called racist.

The American people are **** scared of saying anything for fear of being called racist, but the enrollment numbers show there is a quiet shift in thinking going on.
People are not signing up despite IRS penalties.

It's a negotiating tactic, when you're talking from a point of weakness. "We're done here."

Spineless wusses like Boehner roll over and say "OK.". Fortunately, the grownups with some spine are starting to dominate the conversation. "No, we're not done here. In fact, we're just getting started."

The one thing that I'm a little concerned about, is that we might wind up with Obamacare AND some other alternative monstrosity as well. I could see that happening.

President Obama said yesterday:The debate over repealing this law is over. ACA is here to stay

I'm jazzed. Since virtually everything B.O. says is a bald-faced-lie I reckon you can stick a fork in ObamaCare. It appears than most everyone, myself included, are resisting compliance with this un-Constitution, disastrous Obamination.Civil disobedience is prevailing in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.

Republicans can take the Senate. If they do, Multi-State Health Care Compacts can overturn Obamacare, and Obama will have no say in the matter at all. It will be like a “veto override”. NO Presidential input at all!

It was deceitfully rammed down the throats of Americans . . . passed “so we could see what was in it” . . . . Those who perpetrated the passing of this highly contentious bill without the consent of the people deserve to be drug out into the street and stomped upon until dead. The fact that the Establishment Republicans are willing to let this stand unchallenged tells me everything I need to know about them. On an issue so fundamental to our economic system, form of government, culture and way of life, TO HELL WITH POLITICS. For once in you self-absorbed, miserable lives, do the right thing and fight this with every ounce of strength you have. . . and NEVER give up on taking it down, or those who passed it!!

Exactly. These maximalist tactics are the only transparent thing about the kenyan. He did the same thing with the I AM NOT NEGOTIATING tactic on the debt ceiling. Yet the beltway GOP simply refuses to engage him and gives away the store. Infuriating.

Read the Constitution. Or Google “State Health Care Compacts”. I believe that the Heritage Foundation and perhaps CATO have also had some pieces on this subject. If the States pass a law, signed by the governor, exempting them from some Federal law, and then Congress agrees, no Presidential input is required.
